The M60D Series Machine Guns should be inspected and gauged at least once annually for safety and serviceability. Initial gauging is required one year from receipt of the weapons.

A two year interval may be maintained by some units unless preventive maintenance checks and services (PMCS) or other physical evidence indicates that an individual unit’s M60D Machine Guns require inspection/gauging at a more frequent interval. If it is determined that a yearly inspection is necessary for an individual unit, only that unit will be affected. That will not affect other units in regard to the interval of inspection. Dry cleaning solvent (SD) is flammable.

Do not clean parts near an open flame or in a smoking area. Dry cleaning solvent evaporates quickly and has a drying effect on the skin. When used without protective gloves, solvent may cause irritation to or cracking of the skin.

Personnel operating vapor degreaser are warned not to breathe the vapor fumes.

Before starting an inspection, be sure to clear the weapon. Do not actuate the trigger before clearing the weapon. Inspect the chamber to make sure it is empty and free of obstructions. Check to see there are no obstructions in the barrel and no ammunition is in position to be chambered.

Using paint thinners, gasoline, kerosene, benzene (benzol), water, steam, or air for cleaning the weapon is prohibited. Use only authorized cleaning materials.

Be careful when removing and installing spring-loaded components. Carelessness could cause injury.

To prevent possible body injuries and aircraft damage, personnel should not stand the weapon on its barrel assembly when disassembling or assembling the weapon.

WARNINGDry cleaning solvent (SD) is flammable. Do not clean parts near an open flame or in a smoking area. Dry cleaning solvent evaporates quickly and has a drying effect on the skin. When used without protective gloves, solvent may cause irritation to or cracking of the skin.

CAUTIONCare MUST be exercised to avoid getting lubricant or oil in the gas cylinder when cleaning the barrel. Position the gas cylinder above the barrel during cleaning. The gas cylinder components will be removed and cleaned only when inspection reveals that the piston will no longer move within the cylinder under its own weight when the barrel is tilted end for end. If gas cylinder components are cleaned, wipe interior of cylinder and piston dry before reassembly. After reassembly, check for movement of gas piston by manually tilting the barrel assembly. Rewire vent plug.

NOTEDo not dilute lubricant. Shake well before using.

Burrs or raised surfaces may be removed or smoothed using a fine grit sharpening stone. DO NOT change the tolerances of any component by stoning. Cracks, chips, dents, or gouges on components shall be reported to direct support maintenance for repair or replacement.

Cracks, chips, dents, or gouges on breech bolt locking surfaces can damage the barrel socket. Damage to barrel socket locking surfaces can damage the breech bolt. Notify direct support maintenance for replacement or repair if either condition exists.

No abrasive materials will be used to clean the gas piston or the inside of the gas cylinder (i.e. green pads, steel wool or crocus cloth). The receiver brush will not be used to clean inside of gas cylinder.

CAUTIONIf solid film lubricant comes in contact with any moving or internal part,clean part with dry cleaning solvent.

MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES 19

GENERAL

Without a gauge, or inspection criteria, to determine if any component part or assembly of a weapon hasexcessive wear and/or how deep of a crescent/half-moon appearance make the component/assemblyunserviceable, the determining factors will have to remain as follows:

a. The functional/operational check with dummy cartridges. b. The experience and judgmental expertise of the DS armorer and/or maintenance personnel to determine that a component, assembly or repair part needs replacement.

NOTEWhen a weapon is received by direct support with a maintenance request, all gauging requirements must be checked as a standard maintenance procedure. In addition, the weapon must be inspected and any other deficiencies found will be repaired, or noted for repair, at the appropriate maintenance level. As a minimum requirement, for active duty M60D guns the headspace and gauging must be verified annually by direct support personnel. If the M60D machine gun has to go to direct support maintenance for any repair, both barrel assemblies must be turned in with the weapon.

Burrs or raised surfaces may be removed or smoothed using a fine grit sharpening stone. DO NOT change the dimensions of any components by stoning. Cracks, chips, dents, or gouges on components shall be reported to the appropriate maintenance level for repair or replacement.

Cracks, chips, dents, or gouges on breech bolt locking surfaces can damage the barrel socket. Damage to barrel socket locking surfaces can damage the breech bolt.

INTRODUCTION

This introduction provides a general explanation of all maintenance and repair functions authorizedat various maintenance levels under the standard Army Maintenance System concept.

The Maintenance Allocation Chart (MAC) immediately following the introduction designates overallauthority and responsibility for the performance of maintenance functions on the identified end item or component, The application of the maintenance functions to the end item or component shall beconsistent with the capacities and capabilities of the designated maintenance levels, which are shown on the MAC in column (4) as:

The tools and test equipment requirements (immediately following the MAC) list the tools and testequipment (both special tools and common tool sets) required for each maintenance function asreferenced from the MAC.

The remarks (immediately following the tools and test equipment requirements) contain supplementalinstructions and explanatory notes for a particular maintenance function.

MAINTENANCE FUNCTIONS

Maintenance functions will be limited to and defined as follows:

1. Inspect. To determine the serviceability of an item by comparing its physical, mechanical, and/or electrical characteristics with established standards through examination (e.g., by sight, sound, or feel). This includes scheduled inspection and gaugings and evaluation of cannon tubes.

2. Test. To verify serviceability by measuring the mechanical pneumatic, hydraulic, or electrical characteristics of an item and comparing those characteristics with prescribed standards on a scheduled basis, e. g., load testing of lift devices and hydrostatic testing of pressure hoses.

3. Service. Operations required periodically to keep an item in proper operating condition, e.g., to clean (includes decontaminate, when required), to preserve, to drain, to paint, or to replenish fuel, lubricates, chemical fluids, or gases. This includes scheduled exercising and purging of recoil mechanisms.

4. Adjust. To maintain or regulate, within prescribed limits, by bringing in proper position, or by setting the operating characteristics to specified parameters.

5. Align. To adjust specified variable elements of an item to bring about optimum or desired performance.

MAINTENANCE FUNCTIONS (cont)

6. Calibrate. To determine and cause corrections to be made or to be adjusted on instruments of test, measuring and diagnostic equipment used in precision measurement. Consist of comparisons of two instruments, one of which is a certified standard of known accuracy, to detect and adjust any discrepancy in the accuracy of the instrument being compared.

7. Remove/Install. To remove and install the same item when required to perform service or other maintenance functions. Install may be the act of emplacing, seating, or fixing into position a spare, repair part, or module (component or assembly) in a manner to allow the proper functioning of an equipment or system.

8. Replace. To remove an unserviceable item and install a serviceable counterpart in its place. “Replace” is authorized by the MAC and assigned maintenance level is shown as the third position code of the Source, Maintenance and Recoverability (SMR) code.

9. Repair. The application of maintenance services, including fault location/troubleshooting, removal/installation, disassembly/assembly procedures and maintenance actions to identify troubles and restore serviceability to an item by correcting specific damage, fault, malfunction, or failure in a part, subassembly, module (component or assembly), end item, or system.

10. Overhaul. That maintenance effort (service/action) prescribed to restore an item to a completely serviceable/operational condition as required by maintenance standards in appropriate technical publications. Overhaul does not normally return an item to like new condition.

11. Rebuild. Consists of those services/actions necessary for the restoration of unserviceable equipment to a like new condition in accordance with original manufacturing standards.

CAUTIONThe following definitions are applicable to the “repair” maintenance function:

Service - Inspect, test, service, adjust, align, calibrate, and/or replace.

Fault location/troubleshooting - The process of investigating and detecting the cause of equipment malfunctioning: the act of isolating a fault within a system or Unit Under Test (ET).

Disassembly/assembly - The step-by-step breakdown (taking apart) of a spare/functional group coded item to the level of its least component, that is assigned an SMR code for the level of maintenance under consideration (i.e., identified as maintenance significant).

Actions - Welding, grinding, riveting, straightening, facing, remachinery, and/or resurfacing.

Column (2). Component/Assembly. Column (2) contains the item names of components, assemblies, sub-assemblies, and modules for which maintenance is authorized.

Column (3). Maintenance Function. Column (3) lists the functions to be performed on the item listed in column (2). (For detailed explanation of these functions, refer to “Maintenance Functions” outlined above).

Column (4). Maintenance Level. Column (4) specifies each level of maintenance authorized to perform the function listed in column (3), by indicating work time required. This work time figure represents the active time required to perform that maintenance function at the indicated level of maintenance. If the number or complexity of the tasks within the listed maintenance function varies at different maintenance levels, appropriate work time figures will be shown for each level. The work time figure represents the average time required to restore an item (assembly, subassembly, component, module, end item, or system) to a serviceable condition under typical field operating conditions. This time includes preparation time (including any necessary disassembly/assembly time), troubleshooting/fault location time, and quality assurance time in addition to the time required to perform the specific tasks identified for the maintenance functions authorized in the MAC. The symbol designations for the various maintenance levels are as follows:

C - Operator or Crew Maintenance O - Unit Maintenance F - Direct Support Maintenance L - Specialized Repair Activity (SRA) H - General Support Maintenance D - Depot Maintenance

Column (5). Tools and Equipment Reference Code. Column (5) specifies, by code, those common tool sets (not individual tools), common Test, Measurement and Diagnostic Equipment (TMDE), and special tools, special TMDE and special support equipment required to perform the designated function.

REMARKS

A Gauge annually using appropriate gauges.

B Receiver is a serialized item and not replaceable below depot level maintenance.

C Restamping or altering the serial number is prohibited.

D Receiver looseness check will be accomplished at time of repair and/or annual gauging cycle.

E Barrel and carry handle assembly will not be interchanged between weapons due to headspace requirements.

F Barrel and carry handle assembly will be issued only when complete weapon is checked for headspace requirements using the bolt that will be used in barrel.

G Breech bolt assembly will not be interchanged between weapons, and new breech bolt assembly will be checked for proper headspace requirements before returning to service.

H Burrs on the operating rod tower and yoke area is an inherent condition of the weapon. Organizational maintenance will remove small burrs and upset metal. Operating rod will not be rejected for this condition.

I Breech bolt assembly feed lug is prone to chipping and is an inherent condition of the weapon. Organizational maintenance will smooth surfaces by stoning. Breech bolt will not be rejected for this condition until the bottom camming lug begins to wear.

J Fabricated bucking bar anvil will be used to tighten rivets in receiver bridge.

K Riveting fixture will be used to tighten rivets in the magazine bracket to receiver surface.

L When a weapon is received by direct support with a maintenance request, all gaging requirements must be checked as a standard maintenance procedure. In addition, the weapon must be inspected and any other deficiencies found will be repaired, or noted for repair, at the appropriate maintenance level. As a minimum requirement, the M60D headspace must be verified annually by direct support personnel. This requirement could be increased to four times a year or after each training cycle depending on usage factors.
